Several other local authorities are also flying the St Andrew’s ensign above their respective town halls to show their support for the union.

Woking Borough Council started to fly the Saltire on September 11 and will continue to do so until the day after the referendum.

Cllr Forster (pictured) said: “The referendum on independence is clearly a matter for Scotland, but I am delighted the council agreed with me that we should fly the Scottish Saltire to show we want them to stay in the union.
